A Wiki is a an easily edited website. You do not need to know any computer code or programming language.
All you have to do is click the "edit this page" button and your page is ready to create.
It is more or less like creating a document in Microsoft Word. The advantage is that the finished product is on the
web for all to see.
The most powerful part of a Wiki page is the ability of people to collaborate on the page.
You can give users permission to edit your page(s) and become creators of new content.
What can you put on the wiki page....almost anything.
Text, pictures, weblinks, videos, documents, embedded content from other sites, and a whole host of widgets.
What can you use a Wiki space for?
English - Assign groups to create a page for each significant character in a novel, favorite authors, elements of a short story...
Social Studies - Pages on countries, world leaders, forms of government, significant events of a time period....
Science - Stages in a cycle, global warming issues, elements, scientific method....
Math - Problem solving strategies, specific solutions, example problems, problem of the day...
Any subject - Any content that is worthy of presenting to the class or a world wide audience.
